CERTAIN of the democratic newspR- pers repub.ish with evident satisfaction an item from the Tombstone Democrat claiming that complete journals were kept of each days proceedings of the late legislative assembly, properly sign ed and approved. Notwithstanding the positive assertion If the Democrat. the CITIZEN has even better evidence that such was not the fact. The Democrat has possibly mistaken the minutes, roughly taken in pencil, for a regular and sttested Journal of proceedilgs, carefully written without changes, in terlineations or erasures. The journals proper are made up from the daily min utss, and are then attested by the chisT clerk and the presiding officer, and are generally safe from outside manipula- ton and all species of ''dCc.Oglng,' while the accumulation of rough min utes are frequently accessible to any person. From information now at hand We are forced to believe that in some In- stances tine alleged journal of proceed ings of the legislature is at variance with the facts, and that much trouble and litigation will grow out Of the imperfect manner in which they are made up.

THERE is almost E certs;,,v ,,,o. a.

THERE is almost certainty that sha contest to be waged against the naw license law will prove successful and upon the trIal of the case ;he fact viu Ina shown by positive evidence thu. tsa so- called law never passed one branch of ina legislature, and further, that it WAS eci- uslly defeated when brought to a vose l; seems to have viewed this formality with disdain and contempt and bobbad up serenely among the acts that vera considered good or e1pedient. just to make a little sur and excitement for brief time and then get kicked ,o death. So far as the act itself is oo,- cerned. We connot say that it is realty bad or unwholesome, save that it leci,i- matizes vice and then taxes it upiustly. Even the man who is licensed to sell the hquors and maintain gambling houses VIII agree to the proposition tia. these are immoral pursuits and thrive solely upon the vices of the people, but so long as the traffic is recognized by federal ard territorial authority Gs q leRitiraete business it IS entitled to every just con. sldersticn by law that Is given to other pursuits classified as outside the neees- sities of life. There is practically TO difference III a moral sense. between g high snd low license, end the revenue ntT from consideration involved. A high license does not prohibit icdulserce in vice. for Gs much liquor will be consumed un- der any circumstances. shors Of positive prohibition. The seller does not profit less by high license. for the victim to morbid appetite must pay more for his dram or receive less fer hIs money. \ higher license may possibly close the doors of few saloons, and cur of 6 little from the aggregate revenue derived by the county, but their patrons will grRvitste to other establishments to gratify their desires. So far us the pub lie IS concerned, therefore, there is but little choice between the two extremes of high and low license, and so long as the traffic IS made legitimate by law, and taxed for public purposes, it should be treated fairly and inpBrlially. We fear that the present disputed law will not prove beneficial ii It survives, and that its ove:throw will be actually dis astrous.

They Away. Did it in Ina, w,,.

Charley Haskins. of Milwaukee. an old telegraph man. was in Europe recently and he tells some funny stories about the way the telegraph business is managed over there. For instance. he filed a message in an office in London. and, out of curios- ity, waited to see what became of it. The receiving clerk did not put it in little leather cup and shoot it up the pneumatic tube 10 the operating room, as the Ameri- cs1 receiving clerk does Instead, he hung it on file hook with a number of other messages and went on taking in more messages, placing them on the same hook. In about half an hour the hook was full. when the clerk called out Co A boy In five minutes the boy was on his way up the stairs to the operating room with that bundle Of messages. and he wasn't in very much of hurry, either No wonder Mir. Haskins says the Ameri- can teleCrapher couldn't stand it to live in that country.
 They are slow over in England. but very careful. For instance when they erect a telegraph pole in the street of a town or city they plant it as carefully as 1T they were laying the foundation Of Sl. .000.

Mesas Outlook.
CTempe Sevs)

Our neighbors on the mesa seem to be moving along even faster than Tempe. Property is freely offered for sale and IS changing hands rapidly. We know of DO country place ID the southwest that offers better inducements for settling down. than Mesa. The chef beauty ot i; IS that the work of reclamation Of the "deseri" land has not been carried OD piecemeal by its inhabitants; they have worked with e common impulse und on a common plan and csn now point with pride to the result of their !abOrs. The situation iB the healthest that could be found, the land IS good and well lm- proved and the water system falls but little short of perfection. With few such works as s canuery or dryer, Mesa wouid soon show itself favored m financial matters Bs sell as by nature. We call especial attention to the fact that a really superior article Of drled fruit, especially Rprisots or figs, snd nest vell-havOred pack of rGisins always command q ready market and a good price. Low grade fruit IS not wanted st any price. We therefore consider that the establishment at Mesa of a fruit dryer, conducted by sone one who E thoroughly acquainted with the busi- ness, would pay well.
 The wine industry is also looming up and a really creditsble article IS now produced by those who make business of 1t. Better qualities of grapes are be- ing planted, better methods are beng used in the manufacture and there IS no doubt but that really fine article will yet be attained.
